That be nice as I think that would fill our recruitment a big strong experienced 2nd Rower. Always get a loan player if struggling at centre. 4th to 6th position if this happens with the squad assembled 👌👍🥖🥖

Well there's clearly scope for an overseas signing in quota terms, whether we've got enough in the kitty for a decent one remains to be seen, but we have been pleasantly surprised by Callum Field signing on the dotted line so who knows. We could certainly do with the lift a decent overseas player would bring, there are plenty of good players in the second tier of Australian RL that would be stand out in our league!

Sod that Frank, my rose-tinted spectacle friend, there is enough of them at the club stealing a wage. If it's an overseas signing were getting it needs to be a half back as three in the squad is not enough for a season.

@wrlfcefc1989 I agree re the extra half-back.

I am a glass half full person (not rola cola whatever that is), so yes, I go into every season believing it will be better than the last and then calmly accept disappointment when it fails to materialise. Try it sometime.

Just think, we could be contesting the play-offs in 2023, led by a geriatric and a team full of Finney's mates. Just how will you cope with your disappointment then?

Maybe it’s Tony Gigot, been released by Toulouse. Now that would be a good overseas signing👍👍
